EMMA POV~

It was night time. The doctor visited earlier and said I should be able to go home tomorrow. I was of coarse happy, but I felt strangely comfortable in this hospital gown. Not all pleasure lasts long, though. 

The guys' will probably get an earful for being late. But if they did explain why they actually were late, they could be spared. And I cannot describe how thankful I am cause they even bothered staying by my side the whole day. Chris went home just before it would be dark outside. It could be more like I insisted him to go because he looked like he would stay here till I was out of the hospital and of coarse I was flattered, but I didn't want to be so selfish and not think about his wellbeing. I had to be a good friend and force him to do what was good for him. But he said he'll be back tomorrow to see me get out of this hospital. And I didn't want to say no cause even if I did he was not gonna listen to me. He made it sound more like a responsibility of his than a nice gesture. I don't know why he's doing all this but I don't want him to stop cause it has me feeling all giddy up on the inside and it's a bit confusing.

Alright enough.

Mom and Jake went home to later come back with some clothes for me to wear tomorrow. I still didn't talk to her properly after what happened in the afternoon. I felt guilty for giving her a cold shoulder. But I couldn't help it.

Anyways...James went home too. But I had a feeling he'd return after some time. I was curious as to why he was being with us even if we just him today. But I chose to ignore it and let him do what he wanted. When I asked my mom if I was supposed to stay here alone, she said Taehyung will be here with me. 

And here he is, beside me with his phone. He was constantly smiling at his phone and it got me curious.

"Taehyung." I called. He raised his head but still had his eyes on his phone.

"Can I ask you something?" 

"Go on." He mumbled still focused on the rectangle screen. 

"You have a girlfriend?" I asked instead of beating around the bush. He slowly raised his eyes from his phone and gave me a look.

"What?"

"Why are you smiling at your phone? What's there to laugh?" 

"You know you sound really nosy right now, don't you?" I gave a nod accepting it.

"But what if I did? What if I did have a girlfriend...?" He squinted at me probably thinking I was planning to do something bad. Of coarse I wasn't intimidated. I shrugged before hugging my shoulders and letting out a sigh. He went back to his phone before giving me final glance.

"What's her name?" I asked nonchalantly.

"Yeona." He blurted out accidently looking at his phone dreamily. My eyes widened not believing he actually fell for my tricks and he gave me the same reaction when he realized it. I snickered at him.

"She's got a nice name." I said giggling. He face still flushed for falling for it. 

"What's wrong? It's a good thing you have a girlfriend." I smiled at him as he glared at me.

"You won't die single like I thought you would." I mumbled.

"How could someone stay single when they have this." He boasted pointing at his face with a proud smirk. I smiled at him. He was right. Anyone would fall for his looks and I couldn't deny it. He squeezed my cheeks before going back to texting his 'Yeona'.

At that moment I went back to being bored. So I called him again. 

"Taehyung." 

"I had a dream today." He just hummed.
